#1 Rated Western Wedding VestCommander Vest - Black

ITEM 003869

$59.95

IN STOCK

I find the most helpful reveiws discuss sizing and not aesthetics. For me, the fit depends on the cut of the garment, I am to thick to wear "skinny" tailored clothes and often, if I go one size larger, it can look like I am wearing my father's clothing. In a sport coat I look for a 43" regular and once again depending of the cut of the garment, along with my own seasonal weight loss or gain, the article of clothing "fits" or looks styling or looks like I am in desperate need of a tailor. Out of the bag, my ordered "Commander Vest" fit nicely and allowed enough room for me to feel comfortable without adjusting the back strap. I purchased this vest for part of a SteamPunk costume I've assembled to wear to DragonCon in the fall of this year. I'm still working on some other applications...
Thanks,

Perfect

The vest is as described, and has a nice weight to it, I've taken to wearing it with my pair of Wahmaker Frontier Canvas Pants in the brown color, with a white or red dress shirt, it adds a nice casual look to the somewhat dressed look that I wear on a regular basis.

Military fashion show!

Another fine vest you gotten me into! This high collar vest provides a distinguished and unique look that will have you looking like an officer and a gentleman. It looks great with an ascot or can even be worn with a regular tie and suit for the avantegard anachronistic look. I was impressed with the craftsmanship and durability that is usually reserved for overpriced designer wear. Since it is worn close to the neck, I would suggest getting a size larger than you would normally wear. It has a surprisingly fitted feel.

I like to wear a vest because it gives me a place to put various items, like a wallet, small appointment calendar, small change purse. I could also carry a cell phone or iphone if I owned one. Very good quality. I wonder how long the lining will last.

Excellent quality and fits perfectly, I really like the fatigued quality of the leather giving it that well worn texture that usually takes years of wearing to achieve. I like it so much that I am thinking of buying the matching jacket.

The best of the Vest

This vest was just what I had been looking for. I am glad I stumbled upon their website ( Very nice site, I might add) a quick transaction and delivery within a week, I will agree with another reviewer to order up one size, this vest runs a little small. I sent mine back and they replaced it with the larger size , they had it back to me in no time!

Klondike Vest - Silver

I had previously ordered another Klondike Vest (Red) and it fit according to the size specified. The silver one seemed to run small so I have returned it for an exchange of a larger size. The color and fabric were as stated. I truly am enjoying the first one I ordered so I am looking forward to receiving the new one.

Pros-Beautiful pattern design for vest.
Nice Weight.
Made Well.
Cons-Not true to measurement.
Husband is 48", Vest measured 2" smaller.
If you are long waisted you may want to consider the item in a Tall.
Returned and will order a size larger in a Tall.

Shiny! And Long!

Ordered the "L" option.
Finally, a vest that (in combination with the Callahan dress trousers) is long enough to avoid the unsightly "shirt-muffin top" poufiness between the trousers and the vest.

Very nice vest

We got 4 of these vests for our wedding and we're happy with the quality. It's a nice silver color, not too shiny but obviously silver and not grey. The real pockets are nice as most vests have fake pockets. My fiance wanted to wear a pocket watch so this is a must. The sizes seem to run true to the size chart. And we were very happy in the range as we ordered from a medium to a 4x and one large-tall.

Just what I was looking for

This was my first purchase from the Historical Emporium along with a satin silver puff tie and I have to say this exeded all expectations, the vest is very well made and is extremely light over all I love it. I will say this when I got it there where a few strings around the buttons but I was assured by a friend of mine who does a lot of tailor work that it was just the tie off point were they closed the stitching for the button holes. Well there is my " complaint " for this review and all it took to fix it was about two minutes with a small scissors and you couldn't even tell so all in all I give this 5 stars.

A Dapper Vest

This vest is well-crafted and really looks sharp under my black Victorian Cutaway Coat. It will also look great when worn as "Santa casual" with black trousers and an open-collared white shirt.

My husband needed a black and white vest for an event later this year during which we will be in historic costumes for a week at a time. This one is not just the best-looking option I could find, but fits well and is well made. He can remove his jacket with confidence; he'll still look well-dressed and period appropriate.

Just what I needed

Bought this striped vest for a Night Circus themed party so everyone needed to wear black and white with a shock of red. This is the best vest I found over the entire internet to fit what I was looking for and the price is good. The product arrived very quickly and I was impressed with the quality for what I paid. The vest is thin, which is what I expected. I wont have to worry about overheating indoors. The fit was perfect when following the size guide.

We love the vests and they arrived in a timely manner. They are of the highest quality and they're perfect for our barbershop quartet, The Apple Boys - Thanks!

I got this one for a friend's wedding. The dress was red vests, black jeans, cowboy boots, and a white shirt. 4 out of 5 of us got our vests from this website and they looked great! Mine arrived in a large flat box so the item wasn't bent or folded. It arrived pristine. The vest was well made and beautiful. i will definitely be doing business here again given the quality of products and affordability.

Lovely looking waistcoat

This piece really does look good, even though the pattern is a bit more garish than my norm. The fit is good, and pretty much spot on for the measurements in the sizing chart. It arrives with the pockets sewn shut, but they are there and easy enough to pop open with a few delicate snips. On the negative side, the pockets are pretty small, so if you actually use them, as I do, it may be a tight fit. A smaller handkerchief might alleviate some of the pocket issues, though. Finally, a modest critique is that while it looks great, the materials the waistcoat is made of feel rather cheap. Hopefully it will wear well enough over time, but this is not quite as nice as some of the other waistcoats I have purchased from the Emporium. But it is also less expensive than some of what I have purchased, too, so for the price it is still a good purchase.

Knox Vest Colors

As with everything I have purchased from the Emporium Collection I'm very pleased. The compliments from others reflect the craftsmanship and style I have grown to expect. The only thing I might suggest is that additional colors need to be added. Silver, green purple (Showman Vest Colors) high lighted by the Black collar and Black pocket trim are naturals. Add a Gambler shirt and you are ready to go downtown. Another Winner!

Very nice vest

I got this vest mostly because I needed a strapless vest that I could wear without having to constantly readjust it throughout the day. Once I got this vest I really liked the texture of the fabric, the style of the front (particularly the double breasted button pattern), and the ease of fit and use.
Definitely got a lot of complements and the price point seemed very reasonable for a vest like this, so I'd recommend it for anyone like me who likes to have a bit of formal wear that isn't too much of a hassle to use.

Outstanding Quality

If there is anything at all to the adage, "The clothes make the man.", then THIS vest is probably what inspired it: the fit, finish, and quality of this garment is so far beyond my admittedly high expectations. The subtle jacquard pattern is very complementary with the red silk " puff" tie I also ordered. And the black-on-black striped lining is sadly unseen by anyone but the wearer. I've never owned a piece of clothing that fit so well, nor is more flattering to me.
If you don't own one of these, you most definitely SHOULD!

Excellent quality at a great price

I purchased this vest to wear at my wedding. I couldn't be happier. In addition to the reasonable price, the item is very well made and looks great. My only comment is the floral pattern in my vest is somewhat different from what is pictured. I am perfectly happy with the pattern on mine, but before ordering you might want to ask about slight variations in items. Each item is made after purchase, so I assume the availability of fabrics may vary.
